Butthead: "He said 'pole'. Heh heh, heh heh heh."
Teacher: "It's pronounced `YOUR-anus'. OK?"
Bevis: "Are you, are you threatening me!? I am the Great Cornholio!"
ARE YOU THREATENING ME??
I finally beat ring-around-the-collar, now this?
Hey! That's personal. I'm going to go take a bath.
"Uranus is one of the solar system's giant, gaseous planets."

['Civ takes cover...]Rings of Uranus - Invisible and impossibleNeither the dynamical nor the optical properties of the rings of Uranus are easily understood, unless it is assumed that they are not rings in the ordinary sense but simply volatile material in the orbits of several individual small satellites. It is possible that other natural satellites may also leave such rings in their wakes.
